Allow Propagation Seconds > 600 for slow DNS providers (e.g. netcup needs 900–1800s)
Some DNS providers (notably netcup) have very long DNS propagation times for TXT records used in DNS-01 challenges.
Projects like certbot-dns-netcup and Traefik have documented that netcup DNS zones are only reloaded roughly every 10 minutes, and in some cases propagation can take up to 20 minutes, so values of ≥900s (and practically often 1200–1800s) are recommended.
In Nginx Proxy Manager’s new React-based certificates UI, the Propagation Seconds input has a hardcoded maximum of 600.
This makes it impossible to configure a propagation delay that matches netcup’s behaviour. As a result, Let’s Encrypt DNS-01 validation with the built-in netcup plugin tends to fail on the first attempt, and sometimes repeatedly, simply because the TXT record is not visible yet.
The back end / certbot plugin itself can handle higher propagation values; the limitation seems to exist only in the front end.
Pls increase the hard limit to something like 7200 (2 hours) to cover all realistic cases.
Right, the old version supported more? Also can you add a screenshot?
